There is much information on problems related to trees: injured or destroyed trees, invading branches and roots of trees, unsound limbs, boundary trees, and ownership of fruits and nuts from trees. There are two chapters on fences and two chapters on boundary lines, trespass, and easements. Other topics are noise, dangers to children and attractive nuisances, rural neighbors and the right to farm, water damage, water rights, home-based businesses, and other neighborhood businesses. One chapter briefly deals with other issues such as blighted property, drug dealers, registered sex offenders, drones, animals, and outdoor lights. The final chapters give advice on researching local laws, state statutes, and case law, and outline the processes of mediation and small claims court. Appendices present 20 pages of state statutes. This ninth edition is updated to give information on current law. The publisher's web site offers legal forms and podcasts." Eithne O'Leyne, Editor Ringgold, Inc. ProtoView
